Director Zach Snyder just posted the first image of the new Batmobile from the forthcoming superhero sequel, tentatively titled Batman Vs. Superman. Holy crap.

Snyder tweeted the image of the Batmobile with a shot of Batman looking solemn and gloomy. Presumably that bat with strangely short ears is Ben Affleck, but it could obviously just be some stand-in as well. And just to add a little gadgety lust to the unveiling, Snyder notes that he shot it with the lux Leica M Monochrome, the company's glorious black-and-white digital shooter. Is that probably a sponsorship of some kind? Of course! But it's a lovely, moody photo that shows the camera's strengths, nonetheless.

The new superhero super movie is set to drop years from now on May 6th, 2016. Besides Affleck, it'll star Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, and Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. This is just the first of many teasers, but damn, the flick can't come soon enough. [Jalopnik]
